I'm with David on this image. You've achieved a lot getting this image with an
f1.2 100mm equivalent shooting at only 1/4 second, but it's simply not quite up
to snuff.
The wonderfully shallow depth of field and high character bokeh of the Konica
Fifty f1.2 is a special tool to have in your tool box to be out ahooting by
available Night!, but it's definitely a high wire act on a razors edge. Tiny
twigs fore-n-aft, left or right, or subject fidgets, dumps ya out of the
bullseye and off into fuzzy bokeh-land.
Keep shooting em and keep bringing em, Walter. I like seeing them on the list.
